No, for any number of reasons. Primary because if you get it wrong Django will explode in your face. Settings that cause crashes when set incorrectly aren't acceptable. There are plenty of other workarounds -- the easiest is to note the email field is optional and just create a RealUserEmail object with a OneToOne to User. Given that, a hacky workaround in Django itself just isn't going to happen. The right thing to do is to get the auth refactor done and solve this and all the other issues at the same time.
